This article describes about methods of rating and diagnostic safety of pilot and industrial biogas installations and diagnosing the reliability of biogas plant equipment to define different malfunctions and disturbances in its work. There were given sequences of the correct evaluation of the biogas plant equipment’ reliability, as well as the diagnosis of failures in its operation, depending on the knowledge of the microbiological sequence of the anaerobic process and the experience of the plant management operators. There were given conclusions in comparison of the total costs for warning, detection and elimination of failures and malfunctions when using direct and diagnostic methods for monitoring the technical state of an energy installation based on renewable energy.
